Whiplash – Unborn Again — Pulverized, 2009

Three piece thrash outfit from New Jersey returns with this barnburner. In your face guitar riffage, pummeling drum beats, and punishing bass lines feature prominently on this record. These guys have been making audiences sweat it out since the 1980's-so you know they can deliver the goods. "Firewater" turns up the heat with a Black Sabbath type dirge that rocks with purpose. "Hook In Mouth" channels the ferocity of Motorhead with reckless abandon and gets results. There's even a Montrose cover on here so you know these dudes know their roots. If you like it loud, fast, and sweaty, Whiplash has a full body cast available in your size today.

Pyramid Scheme of Grief
59X, Disconnect/Disconnect (2025)

This is one of my "find" records of the year so far. I caught a few songs by The Carolyn at FEST 22 and that essentially put them on my radar, but a new record gets a band even more on my radar. But I've been struggling on how to describe The Carolyn. I'll start with "like The Lawrence Arms, … Read more
